On strongly jump traceable reals

In this paper we show that there is no minimal bound for jump traceability. In particular, there is no single order function such that strong jump traceability is equivalent to jump traceability for that order. The uniformity of the proof method allows us to adapt the technique to showing that the index set of the c.e. strongly jump traceables is -complete.     

A note on characterizations of the Natvig structure functions

In this note some new characterization results for multistate systems are obtained. In particular, a new characterization of the Natvig class of multistate systems is presented, which provides us an easy-to-use method of classifying multistate systems. Examples are given to illustrate our results.

Superposition of special non-abelian potentials

The superposition of the non-abelian potentials of the formA′^μ=Aα^μ+aβ ^μ andB′^μ=Bγ^μ+bη^μ are considered and the necessary as well as the sufficient conditions are obtained. The significance of the conditions is discussed and the constrained isotopic spins of the perturbation potentials (aβ ^μ,bη^μ) are shown to be necessary for the superposition of these potenitals.

A unified theory for coherent systems in reliability part III: Two special cases for multinary systems—binary-type coherence and homogeneous coherence

As shown in a companion-paper,¹ binary and multinary coherent systems can be studied with unified arguments, through monotone binary coherent systems. These are binary coherent systems submitted to some monotone constraint and generalize the classic theory of free binary coherent systems. By considering the unified point of view thus obtained, this paper gives what is perhaps the most suggestive representation for multinary coherent systems, since this extends the definition of binary coherent systems in terms of series-parallel (parallel-series) structures. Then, this paper examines the special case of multinary systems that can be studied directly with the classic theory of free binary coherent systems. It thus enlarges and complements, in a shorter unified manner, the particular cases considered in earlier studies.     

Minimal surfaces with prescribed topological type on a Schwarzian chain inMc3

Similar to the investigations of unstable polygonal minimal surfaces by Courant [1] we introduce here a variational principle for the free boundary problem with prescribed topological type which produces minimal surfaces in Riemannian manifolds with constant curvature. For special boundary configurations the surfaces have no branch points. The approach can be applied to numerical algorithms since it is constructive.     

An Approach to the Subproblem of the Cutting Angle Method of Global Optimization

The solution of the Subproblem of the Cutting Angle Method of Global Optimization for problems of minimizing increasing positively homogeneous of degree one functions is proved to be NP-Complete. For the proof of this fact we formulate another problem which we call “Dominating Subset with Minimal Weight”. This problem is also NP-Complete. An O(n²)-time algorithm is presented for approximate solution of Dominant Subset with Minimal Weight Problem. This problem can be expressed as a kind of Assignment Problem in which it is allowed to assign multiple tasks to a single processor. Experimental analysis of the algorithm is performed using the program implemented in ANSI-C. The results of the analysis show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 65K05, 90C27, 68Q25     

Concentration of area in half-planes

For the standard class of normalized univalent functions analytic in the unit disk , we consider a problem on the minimal area of the image concentrated in any given half-plane. This question is related to a well-known problem posed by A. W. Goodman in 1949 that regards minimizing area covered by analytic univalent functions under certain geometric constraints. An interesting aspect of this problem is the unexpected behavior of the candidates for extremal functions constructed via geometric considerations.
